How to enable Ultra DMA Mode 6?

I've a Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 Serial ATA HD. The highest mode I can achieve is Ultra ATA-100 (mode 5) and not the maximum support by Barracuda the Ultra ATA-133 (mode 6). How can I enable mode 6 in Windows XP?

I know this is an old question and perhaps the technology has changed since it was discussed. However, I too have been trying to enable Ultra DMA 6 on my Windows XP machine using two 300GB Maxtor Diamond 10 drives (SATA Ultra 16 150mb). Well, I finally figured out that when I change On Chip ATA Operating Mode From Native Mode to Legacy Mode, the windows hardware manager now indicates that all drives are running in Ultra DMA 6. The reality is that there is really no difference in the drive benchmarks when tested with Sandra. The DMA 5 actually may be a bit faster. What's the deal?????

Ultra DMA mode 6

OK, after numerous tries, I failed to boot from IDE3 with the moded bios 5.6 that let you use ide3 and ide4 as normal ide channels. Now don't even ask me question about that, I don't want to here anything related to this.
Now I have flashed again to the standard bios version 5.6. I have my DVD-RW master on IDE2 (Ultra DMA mode2 = 33.33MBps = optimal) and my CD-RW as slave (multi word DMA mode 2 = 16.6 MBps= optimal ). My hd is master on IDE1. In my bios it says my hd is running in PIO mode 4, in windows xp it says it's running in Ultra DMA mode 5 (which I assume is UDMA100= not optimal). Why can't a ATA133 certified motherboard and a ATA133 certified HD can't work at UDMA mode 6?
I'm getting nervous here, I want my hd in UDMA mode 6!!!!!!
Yes I use 80 wire cable. And my hd is alone on it's channel, nothing could stop it!
Is it XP? MSI? me?!?

Yes - the standard IDE ports are ATA-133/UDMA-6 compliant. I don't know how to make WIN-XP show them as UDMA-6 but I'm sure someone else will. It isn't really important however as current ATA-133 drives do not perform better than a good ATA-100 drive.

How to enable single window mode?

All that you describe is the standard setting them I have long found, but they do not bring any results. What is interesting - parameter "TargetedClicksCreateTabs" in a state of "true" which is processed in the Mac version, broken in the Windows-based version if it is to register the file C: \ Program Files \ Safari \ Safari.resources \ Defaults.plist a file stored in the folder C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Application Data \ Apple Computer \ Preferences \ com.apple.Safari.plist scrambled to change it theoretically impossible, but if you replace it with THIS file, then it can be set, but the parameter "TargetedClicksCreateTabs" still not working

Is it Office 365, you can try below:
configure these settings:
Go to Admin > SharePoint > Settings
In the Global Experience Version Settings section, choose one of the following options:
Allow creation of old version site collections, but prevent creation of new version site collections. Prevent opt-in upgrade to the new version site collections to only allow users to create site collections using the SharePoint Online
2010 templates and to prevent them from upgrading these site collections to SharePoint 2013.
Allow creation of old version site collections, and creation of new version site collections. Allow opt-in upgrade to the new version site collections to allow users to create either SharePoint Online 2010 site collections or SharePoint
Online 2013 site collections and allow them to upgrade the 2010 versions to 2013.

Ultra dma mode 5 does it matter?

Hi
If I connect one of my maxtor diamond 9 sata hardisks to the promise sata controller, the boot up information says the promise controller is using ultra dma mode 5. My question is what is the correct mode that a sata drive should use? Should it be ultra dma mode 6, or is the dma mode at all relevant for a sata drive?

its fine it matters not at all when drives on the controller

Enable (Ultra) Stamina Mode via an App

I would very much like to automate enabling/disabling the (Ultra) Stamina Mode according to time (limited phone performance & calls/messages at night are more than enough). For instance Smart Connect allows me to run a specific app at a pre-defined time so if there were an app that would turn (U)SM on/off upon being run then this could be done quite easily. The question is, is enabling/disabling (U)SM programmatically possible?
Any help would be much appreciated.

How to enable 640x80 video mode on Satego P200?

Hello all,
for an old game I need the video mode 640x480x8. Unfortunately I can't select the video mode using Catalyst for the Satego P200 with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600. Is there a way to enable this video mode?
Michael

The game is Starcraft and its' addon Broodwar. As version 2 is in the works and some friends and I played it very often in former times we started playing it again. Kind of veteran meeting but quite fun. :)
There are not many posts about it but there seems to be a problem related to s-video output when using 640x480. I am quite sure the graphics adapter, the display and the driver are able to support this mode. So I hope there's maybe neat trick to change some *.inf file or something similar to reactivate the mode.

Here is how to enable full screen mode for AIR Mac Desktop Apps

I just discovered that with a very simple native extension method, I can enable full screen mode for AIR Mac Desktop Applications.
This gets you the full screen icon in the top right, and it works perfectly with no changes to my code. (Obviously only works on Lion and above, since this is a Lion feature)
Enjoy.
Here's the code:
    FREObject _EnableFullScreenMode(FREContext ctx, void* functionData, uint32_t argc, FREObject argv[])
        //We should be okay to do this, even on 10.6, according to this post:
        //http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/cocoa/311124-implementing-full-screen-for-10-7-but-app-should-also-run-on-10-6.html
        //We can't use [NSApp mainWindow] - didn't appear to work
        //This seems to though:
        NSArray * allWindows = [NSApp windows];
        if (allWindows.count > 0)
            NSWindow *mainWindow = [allWindows objectAtIndex: 0];
            NSWindowCollectionBehavior behavior = [mainWindow collectionBehavior];
            behavior |= NSWindowCollectionBehaviorFullScreenPrimary;
            [mainWindow setCollectionBehavior:behavior];
        //TODO: Return a boolean instead depending on if we found the main window
        return NULL;

Press Control + Command + F on your keyboard to enter or exit full screen mode.

How to enable chunked streaming mode using OSB config file

Hi All,
Is there way through which we can enable and disable the chunked streaming mode option in Business service (of OSB) through OSB configuration file?? If yes, please let me know.
Thanks,
Aditya

Hi Aditya,
I don't think it can be done dynamically the way you described... But I believe you can create two business services, one with chunked=on and the other with chunked=off and route to one of them dynamically according to your configuration...
Cheers,

I have the same problem, plus i can assert that EVEN the usb burner il slow and the system seems slowed itself (like as having dma disabled).

Ultra Stamina Mode Major Bug.

I have a Xperia Z1, updated to the latest Android lollipop version. I enabled Ultra Stamina Mode today while I was out and once I got home I tried to deactivate it. But it would not deactivate. Therefore I just restarted the phone. Once restarted I find that I'm still in some sort of ultra stamina mode hybrid. Most of my apps are hidden in the default Xperia Home launcher even though I can still see they're on my phone in Settings->Apps. I can't open any of the few apps that are available as they crash. I got frequent Google Play Services has crashed notifications. I restarted several times, activated and deactivated ultra stamina mode numerous times and still no luck. I searched this issue through Google and found that many people have also encountered this problem and that the only solution was to do a factory reset. So there you go, I had to do a factory reset, lost all my apps and data which weren't backed up all because Sony can't do quality control when updating their phones. If you're going to add a feature Sony make sure you test the **bleep** thing on your phones!

You could try something more drastic, repair the phone with PCC
